GCC 15.1's Rust Front-End Gets Major Boost

The upcoming GCC 15.1 release will feature significant improvements to its Rust front-end, gccrs. Arthur Cohen of Embecosm merged a third patch set adding support for Rust's "if let" statements, massive changes to internal AST/HIR representations, and full implementation of Clone and Copy. Further improvements, including support for PartialOrd and PartialEq, are expected before the release, making gccrs a more viable alternative to rustc.
